Long Acres Pet-Friendly Cottage description

Holiday homeLong Acres is a comfortable Lincolnshire cottage set in a quiet rural position on the outskirts of Old Leake village.

AreaThe peaceful South Lincolnshire village of Old Leake sits in attractive countryside and offers a shop, three pubs, a Post Office, sports field and a children's playground. The village nestles on the edge of the Fens and its bulb fields and windmill sails have earned it the name of the 'Holland of England' - Trader Windmill, a working mill now run by English Heritage, can be seen four miles away in Sibsey. The market town of Spilsby is nine miles away, and here visitors can find a good selection of shops, restaurants and inns. The wonderful coastline, Fens and rolling hills of the Wolds offer walking and cycling opportunities. Many attractions and interesting destinations can be accessed from Old Leake, including the former WWII airfield at East Kirkby which is now an Aviation Heritage centre; the bustling market town of Boston; the seaside resort of Skegness and the antique lover's paradise of Horncastle.

Reviews

The owners were very friendly and helpful. The place was very clean and the general standard high.
I would stay there again.

The cottage is lovely, owners were friendly and the facilities good. Ideally located for visits to Boston, Skegness and King's Lynn. Lovely garden with table and chairs. Conservatory is huge with comfy furniture.

Mrs Peek

April 2014

The place was a perfect base to explore the area. It was extremely well cared for.
The owners were friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. The 'welcome' Easter egg was a lovely touch. The accommodation is excellent; it looks small from the outside but is exceptionally spacious inside. Great conservatory. The plus for us was that we were able to bring our dogs and the site is adults only, hence peaceful!

This was the first time that we have visited the area, and we enjoyed it very much. The cottage was excellent and very well maintained. We expect to go back again, God willing.

Mrs Campbell

April 2014

The accommodation was absolutely faultless and owners extremely helpful. We had a very comfortable week and would love to have stayed longer. There are so many good eating places nearby and lots to see. We travelled as far as East Kirkby Aviation Centre and RAF Coningsby. We were fortunate enough to see so many daffodils in full bloom everywhere. Thoroughly recommend.

A beautifully kept bungalow, which was very comfortable and warm. Using the conservatory was a bonus. A real home from home. We loved everything!

A very good location for getting around. This was our first holiday with a dog and the site was ideal for dog walking. Weather perfect. One of our best holidays.

Mr Brown

The biggest conservatory we have ever seen let alone stayed in - it was great!

Mrs Williams

November 2012

The owners bent over backwards to make us very welcome. We had a lovely week, the accommodation was superb. We have sometimes found the mattresses and sofa not very comfortable but this certainly was not the case at Long Acres. Very secure garden and our dogs especially enjoyed the park.

Mrs Spendlove

August 2012

The welcome by the owners was very nice and friendly. The bungalow was very homely, I would love to go again. There were plenty of towns and countryside to access from where the bungalow is situated. Myself, daughter, granddaughter and dog had a great time and would recommend going for a visit.

Mrs Last

The garden was good for the dog - fully enclosed. Sykes booking staff were very helpful and friendly.

Mrs Cornwall

August 2011

Quiet location. No disturbance from the camp site. No intrusion from the owners. There were information brochures to peruse. Spacious and relaxing inside. We particularly enjoyed the sun room - even though the weather was not all that warm. Altogether a very enjoyable holiday and a lovely place to stay.

Mr Vasse

November 2010

I really liked the bungalow. Plenty of room and nice and warm. The area was quiet and peaceful and I could relax. I managed to do some walking and local sight-seeing. The owners were very nice. Boston has a lot of things going on and I managed to visit Lincoln and Skegness. I came to get away from everything for a few weeks and enjoyed the experience.

Mr Leach

July 2013

The holiday was just what I needed, time to relax and unwind. The cottage was lovely and peacefully situated and the owners were friendly and helpful.

Mr Dorow

March 2010

The railway did not disturb us at all! Handy for East Kirkby Air Museum and Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at RAF Coningsby. Boston Stump Tower worth the climb.

Mr Postle

April 2010

The bungalow was lovely, spacious and comfortable. Lovely large and pleasant conservatory and garden.

Mr Saunders

We liked the fact that the cottage was spacious and there was plenty of room for us with a lovely garden to watch all the wildlife in.

Mrs McCarron

The holiday property owners made us feel so welcome, they are a lovely couple. The accommodation was excellent, warm, clean, really nice inside. They had thought of everything to make the holiday home from home. The dog was also made welcome and he made himself at home too.

Mr Kempe

Only once (in the week) heard a train in distance. The bungalow is immaculate all through. 'The Castle' A52 - good food.

Mr Mrs Weaver

It was a good location to go to the Lincoln Christmas market and to go to the coast.

Mrs Green

November 2009

Sykes were very very helpful. We booked at the last minute and it couldn't have gone more smoothly. I have used Sykes Cottages in the past and they would definitely be my first choice again. The accommodation and the owners were excellent.

Guest

January 2014

We have at least 3 holidays each year with our two dogs and always rent cottages. This is amongst the best. Warm, clean, modern, fabulous conservatory too. Weather wasn't that good, so having somewhere like this to return to was brilliant. Highly recommend.

Mr O'Dell

August 2009

The owners were very friendly. Property is ideal for getting away from it all but close enough to get to the tourist areas. Everything excellent!

Mr Hart

August 2009

The property was very well situated for all the attractions that we wanted to see. The nearest shops are some 2-3 miles away, this gave me a good excuse to cycle to get newspapers instead of a 5 minute drive in the car.

Mr Turner

September 2009

The cottage was excellent, clean and very comfortable. The pubs were within a reasonable distance and some provided excellent food at a reasonable cost.
Lots of villages within easy reach and Skegness 15miles. Several National Trust properties and landscapes close by.

Mr Rayner

September 2009

A very well presented accommodation, giving a comfortable stay. All your needs available in the property.

Mrs Webster

September 2009

The cottage is very spacious for a bungalow, with a large conservatory. You could enjoy the 'hustle and bustle' of Skegness a few miles up the coast. Some nice quiet beaches with toilets and free parking!

Mr Mrs Kerr

September 2009

Peace and quiet!

Mrs Holmes

October 2009

Very good for traveling to local spots
We were made to feel very welcome

Mrs Dibble

There was really nice conservatory which we used a lot. The people who ran the property were very welcoming and very helpful if we had any problems. It was a delightful peaceful place to stay and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Fairly easy to find, very impressed with accommodation. although the garden was enclosed it was not dog proof. Location ideal for visiting coast and countryside. plenty of good dog friendly pubs locally.
As weather was fantastic so was everything else. This was our first holiday with our recently rescued dog. we will definitely do it again.

The cottage was spotlessly clean, comfortable warm (even in the winter!)
Everything you need is there. Kitchen very well equipped.
Location beautiful with many attractions in the area.
Our hosts were very welcoming and couldn't be more helpful,
Will definitely recommend this lovely cottage to anyone who likes peace and quiet, but near enough to all airforce museums, country houses and quaint villages, but still close to main towns .
Thanks a lot for a beautiful holiday.

Cottage was tidy, clean and easily accessible. The owners were friendly and helpful. Location was fairly central and we were able to access many places and attractions fairly easy. We would quite happily return to Long acres for another holiday.

From the moment we arrived it just worked for us. The conservatory allows for a quiet place to read and think(or escape)
The walk down to the pub is not an inconvenience, it's part of the experience.
A great week was had by everyone.
